Also, I don't want to be used as a traffic calming device.

Wow! This definition makes me a bit squeemish. I sort of envision pedestrians plunked out in the middle of the street as sitting targets if the drivers don't slow down and veer into the center lane. That near lane is the bus lane. Would they only put this on one side of the intersection? I can also imagine emergency vehicles racing down the street and other vehicles having problems getting out of the way. I'm sure that smarter heads than mine have gone over this but my initial reaction is that this is a very bad idea.
